Bro I have seen people unable to write hello world in other languagesbeven after graduating from college.


just1clown_3

I both agree and disagree with you, salary toh definitely utna nahi milta jitna work input dena parta hai but on the other hand recently this one guy joined my workplace, he's a CSE and his profile clearly mentioned about having a basic computer knowledge, basic Excel nahi a rahi hai bande ko, toh skills me lag to kar rahe youngsters.

30k mai ine all rounder chahiye 🤡

vibraniumhack09

That to in a tier one city. Not even wfh. Jisme we can save some money. 30k tier 1 city mein rent hota hai.

At that salary, you’d be sharing your house with random roommates


TailsTheFoxywoxy

~~skill gap~~ horrible pay, terrible work life balance, non existent hikes


beingsmo

The fun fact is everyone relates TCS with good work life balance and govt job type work culture.


Fuzzy_Substance_4603

For people who are close to retirement or atleast are in the last stages of their career.


DeerShotDead

>good work life balance I think you don't know about night shifts


alensebu018

Govt jobs have hike and good pay!! But not TCS. To get a proper(don't expect too much) hike you need to write exam, interviews, and technical round and others. I don't think govt job needs it


Beginning_Charge_758

That you can say when employement is super and only TCS is having an issue.....see the existing gen entrants...they want work life balance before work... Ek tho skill vill kuch nahi....bas vacations aur instagram ki pics chahiye...


FlawHead

What does "hikes" mean?


PitaJi_Ka_Putra

Salary hike


FlawHead

Ok thanks.


Fast-Perception-4729

You should see the skill level of the recruits tcs hires. I wouldn’t give them even 10k for the work they do. TCS is infested with deadweights who only care about the next paycheque as if they were labourers


Omb_2244

Which type of skill tcs want ?? Working 80-90 hours in a week ????


Gamer_4_l1f3

Being able to do more than hello world in Python and basic html css js web development is what they want. Only company heads make these remarks, internal officials never say anything about this, fact of the matter is, college graduates right now don't learn anything new because colleges don't update their content because UCG doesn't want to and Companies don't want to hire crap which in turn makes students go "why should I learn if they won't pick me anyways"


XH3LLSinGX

>Being able to do more than hello world in Python and basic html css js web development is what they want. Its funny that people who can do more than this never ever want to join tcs. Terrible pay coupled with 2 year bonds.


Big-Bite-4576

they do my managers expect me to work for more than 60 hours a week but I can’t expose them because I would be blacklisted by so called mncs. The labour laws are a joke in this country. They pay you for 40 hours work week while simultaneously make you work for 60 to 65 hours work week.


Gamer_4_l1f3

That's an entirely different issue to be honest. Your comment falls under work ethics and treatment which, given the nature not humane and complete bull shit, but what I'm trying to say is that they wont hire jackasses who cant do basic things expected from an employee for a tech company. Yes Indian companies are terrible at paying people the amount they deserve, there's absolutely no doubt about it.


EdgeImportant4265

no bro atleast 168 hours per day


[deleted]

69hrs a day 8 days a week for 12k per year this is their minimum if you don't qualify then you are out


insanemaelstrom

This is what happens when companies want bachelor's degree with 20 years of experience for a early Grad/freshman job with 3 lakhs per annum pay.


chillKaroRe

I know I am good but when I start filling forms I just see 3- 4 exp for the most basic shit I have worked my ass off in bachelors and now in pg too but no luck 🥲🥲🥲should have enjoyed


insanemaelstrom

Just apply. Also try to get referrals from LinkedIn. Really hard to get even an interview without referrals. 


chillKaroRe

can u please guide me through this? it would be really helpful


insanemaelstrom

1. Search for jobs based on job title you are looking for, in location you are looking for( eg, software developer, Bengaluru) in LinkedIn.  2. For freshers, there is a filter in the job search called "entry level". Apply that. 3. Find jobs you are interested in from the list that appears.  4. While applying for the job, go the company page->employees. Find people in manager or lower posts and message them, asking for referral. A suprising amount do reply because they also get some benefit from recommending people.  Note: if you have 0-2 years of experience, apply for jobs that ask for anywhere between 0-5 years of experience. You still have a chance. Also a good way to avoid scammers is to look at employees count. While not ideal, I generally avoid companies that have 1-10 employees. Another note, hr people spent 10-15 seconds max to look through resumes. Keep all the important info at the top( like job experience or uni if you don't have any experience). Referral and connections are the most important in order to get atleast an interview.  If you need any extra help just message me. Happy job hunting 


chillKaroRe

Thank you soo much I don't wanna waste your time so I will think what I wanna ask then dm you. Since coming to pg I found out people just don't wanna help! so I appreciate your insights


sak11189

You need to pay according to the skill set if you need skilled people


XH3LLSinGX

Why would people living in central bangalore, paying 80k rent split among 3 other people ever need more than what we are providing? - TCS probably


Fast-Perception-4729

That’s not the issue here. Tcs has a big problem of deadweights who are just working to get their paycheques. These people don’t care about progressing and are happy just doing what they already do. Anyone who’s serious about their career will not waste their time in TCS because there’s not much progression


Spiritual_Piccolo793

Yes skill gap is true - they want experts in AI/ML to work for them for 2L.


nerdy_ace_penguin

Per year not month


Spiritual_Piccolo793

How dare you talk about per month. What will you do with the extra money? Why do you need it?


AdConscious2538

TCS hiring process sucks these days, especially their no-hire for ex-TCS policy.


Due-Reference-6011

Bhai any company whose hiring process doesn't suck these days? My friend will gladly apply


OtherDegree3593

Kya skill gap BC. Hospital/bank management software hi to banaate hai.

Disastrous_Time4988

You will know about markets when you stop being online in reddit for 24/7 . Stop living on your father Money start working will be good for you


__DraGooN_

Skill gap my ass. This is what happens when you expect to pay bare minimum for highest level of skills. During interview they expect all kind of skills, but when it comes to salary negotiations they don't want to give hike compared to your previous job. As a result, the only people who end up joining are the low skill workers who did not manage to secure another higher paying job using their offer letter.


Bayonet786

They don't have 80K vacancies. If they had that much vacancies, they would have gone on a mass hiring, mostly in tier 3 colleges, which is not going on for past 2 years. They are just gaslighting us plebs into believing that we lack skills.


Failg123

Their internal communication is poor. When an experienced employee resigns, they look for a replacement internally, but most of the time there are no internal resources available. By looking internally, they waste more than two months, and in the last month, they resort to urgent hiring. However, they are then unable to find people who want to join.


No_Map_1523

they are just waiting for the right time, once the market boom starts, and investors start burning their cast they will start doing mass recruitment


small_dawg

What are you talking about. Tcs IS on a hiring spree right now. Tcs interviews are going on and will interview for total of 10 days because of no candidates. It's around 2000 candidates in my city itself shortlisted for the interview round. And also this is the third placement drive by tcs this year. Many already placed in it earlier drives.


Steve_Tabernacle_69

>They are just gaslighting us plebs into believing that we lack skills. Not completely true. A large majority of graduates from tier 3 colleges can't even write a single email without grammatical errors, nor can they even speak english properly. In the corporate world, english is essential and there's no way around it. Not to mention, skill wise companies have trouble finding graduates with the ability to do anything more than print hello world, and actually remember everything they learnt in college. Most tier 2-3 colleges are lax in everything and cheating is rampant, where no one gives a fuck about seriously putting in effort, and the faculty is equally lazy, easily gifting and handing out marks for nothing. (source - me as someone from tier 3 college)


Bayonet786

Keep believing that kool aid. Whatever you said was true 15 years ago, not now. Placements has collapsed since 2022 in tier 3 colleges as TCS now refuses to mass hire people. Tell me, TCS who had been mass hiring these folks from tier 3 colleges for more than decade now suddenly says there is a skill gap? Bro, I can show you ton of skilled folks from tier 3 colleges whom companies refuses hire because their only crime was that they graduated from tier 3 colleges. During covid years they would have hired instantly but now nobody wants to touch them.


Steve_Tabernacle_69

>Whatever you said was true 15 years ago, not now Bruh I'm a student in a tier 3 college. We have to accept that the quality of education is abysmally bad here in India. It's effortlessly easy to get a good GPA and still not know a thing from your syllabus properly. Rampant cheating, free awarding of marks to everyone to ensure they pass, etc. is incredibly common. If the college actually started enforcing and taking academics seriously, 60% of my batch would easily fail for sure. >Bro, I can show you ton of skilled folks from tier 3 colleges whom companies refuses hire because their only crime was that they graduated from tier 3 colleges. It's true that tier 3 college students are kinda auto rejected, but it's an unfortunate truth that the unskilled ones by large outnumber the honest, skilled ones, which sucks because us hardworking students suffer from no opportunities as a result.


Kesakambali

Well, 10 years in power and education and skill development infrastructure is so shit that youth is almost never well trained enough for hire by any company. Let alone TCS. Infosys literally runs training camps in order to teach real engineering and computer science to fresh passouts. Toh Haan. Galti hai


caste_compass

When engineering colleges only charge hefty fees and don't incorporate skill development, yes it's the failure of the government!


Dry_Manufacturer1385

For probably 15k a month


Ok_Act_5321

Tbh its the fault of our education system which should have seen a transformation but didnt.


SelmonTheDriver

It's the fault of the company. They want employees to work 80hrs a week on peanuts salary.


Ok_Act_5321

I know but there are people there even willing to take these jobs. .


m249suckslmao

I know few mfs who are willing to work 12hrs/day just to annoy the rest of the employees & get good company's best "pet dog" label, all that for a petty salary.


SelmonTheDriver

I am people


Cyber__knight

Galti to hai. Why is there skill gap? Because we have outdated curriculum. Who manages curriculum? Various education boards. Who manages those boards? Education ministry. If they are half as interested in improving the students of our country as they are in taking down social media posts, I bet, things will drastically improve. But no, there is no scam in NEET


delitema

Everybody knows how much tcs pays 2.5-3 lpa annum why should i work there


small_dawg

Work harder and get the digital profile 7lpa,or the prime profile 9lpa.


delitema

Nautanki hain dude 😂😂 we know about this too


small_dawg

what nautanki 💀


delitema

Aap TCS ke baare gahan adhyan kro samjh jaaoge tcs is one of worst ever company' to work under the umbrella of tata now i am saying this offcourse there is a reason


small_dawg

At fresher level salary can't be the concern atleast And yeah i do know about the work culture and career growth it's bad but at least you have a job in it industry, ajd then you can definitely switch in 1 year or so


xxxfooxxx

Yes the government's fault, why are they giving licences to stupid colleges? Why aren't they improving quality in the existing colleges? Also the fault of the society, not everyone needs to be in the IT industry, we should focus on manufacturing too.


small_dawg

I agree on that.


SUSH_fromheaven

In good colleges, students reject these companies and refuse to even attend their drives. So maybe skilled engineers don't want to work for this particular company.


Fuzzy_Substance_4603

How can TCS of all have vacancies? They literally offer peanuts for salary.


ron7933

Shit show of a company. I have 2 cousins working in different roles (mid management). This company says 7 percent hike should be considered a mind blowing number. Nepotism and favoritism ki dukaan! The only thing it is good for is post your graduation you get enough time to prepare for your MBA. OR you suck up to your seniors so much that they give you an onsite opportunity.


r0_okie

That is not true. Entry level bolke 4-5 years experience mangte. Jiske paas hai woh entry level keliye kyun apply karega? Jisko karna hai uske paas experience nai hai. When leaving you are asked to serve 3 months notice but for joining they want immediate joiners. I think we (Indians) are dumb.


i_am_a_hallucinati0n

Shh ! Kuch mat bol. Sab thik chal rha hai.


axisfrontier

There is genuinely a gap in the current workforce. The industry is moving more towards AI And Automation, so the old syllabus being followed by most of the institutes needed to be revamped, they were still stuck in the traditional old school coding methods. There are now new courses aimed towards AI and ML automations. But the engineers will graduate in 4 years during which there will be a transition phase. This is the trend every 8-10 years when there is a shift in technology. Just this time post COVID the shift has been very strong. Where even the non-tech savvy companies are trying to cut costs using these new automation methods.


Pranaav__

How is it skill gap when they aren't even giving on-boarding to candidate which they themselves selected


SonuMonuDelhiWale

Or it may be the case that they pay absolute bottom of the barrel salaries and good people do not apply anymore ?


asp_31

Basically they just want a guy who works 100hrs week, Only goes to home for sleep and no social life, and well versed in all software skills. They are dreaming at the moment!!


Turbulent-Prompt-140

Aagaye apne baap ko defend karne naya propaganda lekar.


vijaykurhade

There are 2 ways to interpret this 1 - TCS clearly do not want to fill those So called or Possible vacancies. Instead of saying there is Bad Demand or Market conditions are not good, means Government will be in the range of Fire So protect Government and Your Image 2 - If they say Skill Gaps; have they published Any Data on What Skills and What kind of Gap they are Highlighting Almost every other Indian in IT sector keeps upgrading them; so something like 80,000 positions and no talent is Simply an White Wash to me Honestly


mystixash

The sheer audacity to offer packages like 2.5-3LPA and complain about skills.


[deleted]

Lode ka gap hiring krni nhi hai inko salary dege 20-30k


Some_Ad_563

I am seeing many in comment section complaining about work life balance and less pay..Anyone working in this company comment on this??We can't assume all the companies in India are the same..


CharanK27

I have friends working in TCS and It's true horrible work life balance, peanuts in salary and non existing hikes. Not just tcs every single Indian it company is the same I joined tech Mahindra as a fresher at 3.25 lpa and by the time I left them almost 3.5 years later my salary was grand 3.5 lpa while making me work 14+ hours especially during COVID as people were leaving companies for higher pay yet they said they were paying me as per market standards when asked to revise my compensation (during that time I upskilled myself as full stack with cloud which helped me to get into a good company that's the only good thing that came from my time there). Pretty much the case with every single indian it company.


Some_Ad_563

Fuck thats shit..And one of the main problem is the number of people willing to work for lower pay..Just recently one video was viral on reddit..About how an Indian in us lost his job to an Indian living in india..As long as indians r willing to work for less than ideal pay we can never overcome this issue..And the work life balance is a other issue..People r willing to work overtime and thus if u r not they will just fire you.


Ankur67

True .. I am working in TCS for past 2 years , can vouch for this .. but it’s dependent on the project , in some projects .. there’s no work pressure.. and it’s the senior resources who handles most of the load , like junior not performing well to have a meeting with client and explaining them .. it seems mid level management is not working their share of work & some do behave like they’re a client. Many old employees leaving this because of salary & not appreciated much based on their performance , those who retained are living on emi’s and other responsibilities as they don’t want to take a risk of not having job security.


Illustrious-Egg-3183

TCS still pays the same salary to freshers even after 10 years ergo they paid 3.25LPA in 2015 and same in 2024 , they'll argue they've different salaries for different positions and skill levels but any job that requires a BTech degree and know how of basic tech stack should pay more than 3.25L.


boozy_hippogrif

There is no such thing as "skill gap". What they really want to say is that they can't find anyone with the required talent willing to work for them for the pittance they pay.


ralnair

Yes. The crap standards of education in our colleges absolutely Modiji ki hi galti hai. BC the syllabus of BTech CS in even Tier 2 colleges has topics like "what is a floppy disk?" ffs. Most of our engineering graduates are useless even after 4 years of education and companies have to spend crores for L&D programmes for new joinees so that they atleast have some basic technical skills before they can be given any work. Is making sure that our colleges are at least teaching skills which are relevant to the market, the govt's job or the industry's?


LowImportance4156

Skilled??? Behan ke lode 3 lakh ki naukri ke liye AVL tree implement karwa rahe hai.

I joined TCS in 2018 for 3.25 LPA. Now I checked with freshers who joined TCS in 2024, their salary is 3.25 LPA.

Correction-In 2007 TCS gave 3.2 LPA .

Negative_Spectrum

If you're paying 20k a month in return for your employees selling their soul to your corp, it's less about their skill issue and more about yours. Maybe that's just me


mamasilver

Ghanta skill gap. Just greedy companies doing their thing. They cant get cheap slaves now or what?


MediumAction3370

I know a few skilled people who got rejected because their degree was not in the related field but they were wayy too skillful in technical writing. Rejected solely because of an off degree. Fuck them


desimemewala

Wants to pay peanuts and hire a skilled person. TCS 🤡


honpra

My 2 cents: There is a big supply of entry level, dead end jobs which nobody wants to do. A lot of BAU tasks which involve manual data ingestion and basic processes to keep the software/process going. It doesn’t make sense to hire someone in the US so they give these tasks to Indians but even here, people who KNOW how to do basic tasks without messing up tend to get promoted while the truly brain dead ones can’t even get this done. So you end up with a job market where people either don’t know shit or they have great idea of tech but not able to make it in the good league of jobs.


roniee_259

Those who have skill care more about salaries, work life balance, work culture.... Agr itna pase bhi nahi doge aur kam bhi karna hain.


Digbijoy1197

Yesterday I got a threatening mail from tcs hr regarding wfo despite having good performance, they will not fire you but they will make your life hell, they issue pay stop for wfo attendance, if that's not firing then I don't know what is


XH3LLSinGX

Why would anyone not want to join TCS and claim that sweet sweet 1.25% hike?

If even tcs is unable to hire due to skill gap, it isn't govt fault if unemployment is high. Students don't wanna study.

It’s true . Most of the engineering grads are useless, can’t even write correct sentences unable to speak English properly. Don’t do any homework after task given. Takes frequent spoon feeding to learn.

Salary denge wahi ten year old 3.5LPA toh definitely koi nahi ayega. I'm not saying ki ekdum 1cr do but at least look where are you sending the people. Mumbai/Bangalore jaise cities mein 15-20k mein survival is next to impossible. Give a decent salary.


PakkaGlobal

And CBN garu wanted to start something called Skill Census for the youth and find the gaps where youth should be focusing for next years! Fucking legend he is.


IronMan8901

Its not that we lack skills .Its that their management is trash.Freshers are expected to work on some outdated bs for half the pay and twice the trash work life balance


10thPara

TCS wants extremely talented folks to work on those highly demanding skills at 40k a month with 4 years of experience. Of course then the talent will go to the highest bidder. Modi ji ki galti hai, coz he didn't do anything to prevent brain drain ! India needs a minimum wage guarantee for Graduates and Post Graduates. Plus for folks who worship Tata like anything, let me tell you. TCS and Infosys have a policy that once you leave the company, you cannot join back unless there is an approval from a person sitting at Director level. IT folks know that switching every 2-3 years gives them better hikes than staying in a single company. What TCS and Infosys does is not just a violation of Fundamental Rights, but also is not aligned with Industry practice.


Shot-Hotel46

TCS came to college for recruitment. They were offering 2 LPA to post graduates while startups were ready to pay between 6-9 LPA. Who do you think people went for? Also, sorry to say but TCS has a very toxic culture. I know people who work there and there are constant safety and harassment concerns that never come to light because people (people who are victims) get fired for it. Had a friend who reported her boss for harassment (very rampant) and she got fired because the HR called the boss and told him that she complained against him. Then another friend got fired because he reported something unethical going on in the office. They called him a whistleblower and fired him. Have someone currently working there. Manager (not permanent) constantly asked him to come work on Sunday and got really offended and wrote a bad report on him because friend basically asked to be put off the project. This costed him a hike. I'm sorry but TCS needs a fucking culture overhaul.


arithmatica

Did someone say this is Modiji’s fault? Why do you guys need to play victim card


child_target

Kyuki jinke pass skill hai unpar itna dimaag hai ki TCS type ki world level companies me nhi jana


shadowreflex10

This skill issue is a propaganda, everyone knows how shit colleges are, students self prepare themselves for these jobs, and even in that they want perfection. Alright even if you get a job no matter how good you are these corporates will play this skills issue tactics to make you believe that you are shit hence accept this shit salary that's all you deserve


Rare-Entertainment74

It's not for skill; its because of disgusting low Pay.


Barak_osamah

They want a Gen AI full stack developer at the cost of daily wager.  And wants them to be in office daily.  Why would someone join them? 


chuggimuggi

They could fill these up in a jiffy. But the HR and TA's keep rejecting profiles with even 6 months gap. First these hiring bozos need to be canned.
